The Phoenix VA Health Care System benefits from the services of more than 1,000 individual volunteers each year. Our volunteers provide assistance each day to ensure this remains a health care center of excellence. Our volunteers encompass all ages and experiences from the young to the seasoned senior citizen who bring along with them a wealth of life experiences. These volunteers strive to be recognized as leaders in the community and enhance Veteran satisfaction through the delivery of compassionate, high quality care.
Please check this Web page periodically for an updated list of the activities, items and dollars needed by the Veterans that we proudly serve.
